Let’s Talk About the Oculus Quest 2!
So, let's talk about virtual reality. I think the nineties wanted us to believe that it was going to be the greatest thing, but it never really caught on the way we thought it would. Then, there was a surge of it in the last decade, with the HTC Vive and more. It seems like the Oculus is leading the forefront, and the Quest 2 is going to really take over. It seems like … [Read more...] about Let’s Talk About the Oculus Quest 2!

Whoosh3D WhooshVR Cardboard
I really did a review of the Whoosh3D screen protector and maker of 3D on smartphones and tablets. Today, I am going to do a report on a VR viewer from Whoosh 3D.

This time, I didn't really have … [Read more...] about Whoosh3D WhooshVR Cardboard
“Ghost in the Shell” VR Film
I feel odd explaining what Ghost in the Shell is, but if you have never heard of anime (and there are a lot of people that haven't) then you have never heard of Ghost in the Shell. Ghost in the Shell is...a film that has a lot of...female frontal nudity and violence. It's one of those dystopian style science fiction movies, and it means...something. I think it does. … [Read more...] about “Ghost in the Shell” VR Film
Virtual Reality Comes to Roller Coasters
It looks like Virtual Reality is going to sweep the nation with Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, and some more Google Cardboard stuff.

There are two places that have them, but I'm sure they are not the only or the last … [Read more...] about Virtual Reality Comes to Roller Coasters

It looks like some of this is happening, as there will be Gone. Gone is an interactive story which is about a daughter who disappears in the daylight. There is a lot of … [Read more...] about Samsung and Skybound Entertainment Presents VR movie Gone
Samsung Gear VR available on T-Mobile November 27th
As I have stated before, I love virtual reality, and the Gear VR is the only one that I haven't really tested yet. Actually, it is powered by Oculus, and I tried out the Oculus Rift, and the Gear VR is powered by Oculus. I was actually surprised that the Gear VR is out pretty much practically now, as most of the other virtual reality headsets won't be out until 2016. At … [Read more...] about Samsung Gear VR available on T-Mobile November 27th
